Why and how roof heating works?

Heated roof does not allow ice to be formed on the roof, and it prolongs the life of roofing materials. Heating of the roof reduces the mechanical stress on certain elements of the roof, preventing the formation of ice masses, which constitute a danger to human life.

Also, when heating cables roof is not delayed in the water on the roof in the autumn-spring period, shall not be harmful mechanical cleaning of the roof. Thus, a safe anti-icing for roofs. Heating systems that share a roof on:

• System heating cables;

• hydrophobic de-icing compositions.


The heating system is a roof heating cable eliminates the formation of ice dams and smooth performance drain in the autumn and winter. Heating of the roof is provided with special seals heating cable that is laid in the ground water accumulation. Cable changing power depending on temperature prevents the formation of ice coatings of different origin.

Heating is unnecessary on sunny days and should be done once the temperature falls to frosting degrees, so the heating system should be equipped with temperature control. Heating cables are installed in the way of water, which is formed from melting ice. De-icing for the roof should be divided into sections when it comes to complex systems.

Hydrophobic de-icing for the roof involves the installation of the composition, which does not prevent the formation of ice, and helps him run off quickly. De-icing for the roof - is anti-corrosive, environmentally friendly, and water-proofing.
